The densities of molten KI and TlI measured pyknometrically at various temperatures are slightly higher (0.1-0.2%) than the Archimedian values previously found by other workers. Molar volumes in the molten systems KI-TlI and TlCl-TlBr have also been measured pyknometrically. In the first system the relative excess volume is negative and in the second positive but as usual the melts expand on heating. The maximum deviations are about 2.5% and 1.5% respectively. In KI-TlI the excess volume-composition isotherm shows a double minimum at low temperatures, resembling the shape of the electrical conductance isotherms. The attribution of volumetric contractions to the relaxation of the thallium-ligand binding is supported by these results and by nmr evidence.
